ok so imma do Molskis rom 2.26 that has no carrier customaztion as i have read, but i have cingular and want the GPRS and there stuff on there. I saw on the FTP the cingular_extrom.zip, which has a bunch of cab files, do i have have to manually execute all of the cab files?
There is a cingular settings cab lying around in this forum... go search for it...
You can also get the information from Cingular's support site
Just go to www.cingular.com and click on support.
Select the Cingular as the brand of your phone
Select 8125
Then click on the MMS/GPRS settings link and it will tell you how to set these things up with pictures.
I also posted the steps in a MMS thread on here a week or so ago (pictures are stripped out)

I'm new to the wizard world and read though tons of posts about backing up and restoring ROMs, but I couldn't quite find the answer to this question. Is it possible to take the instant messaging programs from the TMobile extended rom and install them on the Cingular 8125?
Should I assume from the lack of response that this isn't possible?
Use AgileMessenger. One IM client works with all the IM services. Pretty good!
From the T-Mo USA Ext Rom I used these 2 CAB files to get the program to work. Signed_Move_IM_Link.sa.CAB and Signed_OZPocketPC.Cab. and now i have the program working fine. Let me know if that works for you.

where did you get those as i can't find them :\ thanks.
I just tried this. It works great. I assume this program works via a Proxy? If so, is it a tmobile proxy or OZ proxy?
PS. found it on ftp.xda-developers.com/uploads/
perhaps this one:
ftp://xds:[email protected]/Uploads/TMo-US-Ext_ROM.zip
i'm gonna try this as well
so i got those cabs installed on 8125 but how do you make it connect?
can make it work over edge or wifi? proxy no proxy?
its not working on either edge or wifi on my 8125 on the cingular network
if someone could figure this out this would be a huge solution to alot of 8125 users
See this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41550
It appears that this program uses text messaging instead of the internet.
I just noticed that the Cingular nba file on the xda ftp is the exact size as the RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe.
I have tried loading the Cingular nba file and at reboot the Qtek splash screen comes up.
with the Qtek rom.
The ROM is an OS only, so it will look exactly like imat'es and 02's and qtek's and dopod's etc... what you need is the ExtRom which is there. That has all the customizations that cingular added. Which are worthless btw, i spent hours last night trying to put the ext rom onto the cing-8125.nba and it kept freezing while trying to install the extrom. so i gave up and installed the cingular extrom on imates WWE ship rom. The cingular additions are not needed. Maybe you could use the MMS and Media net settings, but thats about it. It gives you a blue theme with the cingular logo in it (YAYYY) a push email service called Good something(i don't use push so i dont need it) and some express mail crap. Also they put all these proxies for http so you have to tweak with them to be able to use internet on wifi. Another thing, there were a couple cabs in the extrom that i removed. For example one of them was something like wifi rate 4. don't want that. another was time zone -5... to bad i'm in central -6.
also i noticed the cingular 1.6 rom is slower then the imate's 1.1 or whatever it is.
Cingualr rom
I agree.
I also stayed up most of the night loaded 1.5 and loading the cingualr extend stuff in the rom, then using awizard to load the cingular 8125 nba file. I also saw it freeze as well.
I went with the qtek 1.67 rom with radio 1.3
Just configure the device myself.
I don't think I am looking back. Happy with the peformance so far.

help... what do i do to "tweak with them" to be able to use internet over wifi???
Howdy yall,
I've created 2 executable ROM upgraders for Cingular 8125 users.
The first is a RUU package that will restore an 8125 to it's 100% stock shipping state.
This file is on the ftp at:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_1.8.11.1.WWE.ship.exe
The second file is a customized version of the latest Qtek AKU2 ROM. It requires that your device be CID unlocked to install. It includes the Qtek OS, Radio, IPL, and SPL ROM parts untouched. The extended ROM has been customized as follows:
-all Cingular customization cabs included EXCEPT "Singed_gprsstall_1228.sa.cab" which breaks wifi.
-cab created by ammar to allow enabling wireless Today screen item.
-SPCS cab to allow install of unsigned cabs
-PPCContactsMgr cab created by ammar to allow for selecting/deleting multiple contacts
-P_removeBTicon cab to remove the battery indicator in the tray
-P_DisconnectButton3s cab to allow for gprs disconnect when holding end key 3 seconds
SPLASH screen display order is set to Cingular, Cingular, Windows Mobile (same as stock)
I left the "Get Express mail" and Goodlink stuff despite wanting to blow it away.. =)
This file is on the ftp at:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE.exe
Hopefully this is useful to Cingular folks who want to either go back to stock easily or go to the latest AKU2 ROM while maintaining Cingular customizations.
I take no responsibility for what happens to your device or the price of tea in China if you decide to use these RUU upgraders. I have swapped between the two versions several times today without problem.
your gonna make a lot of people happy with this easy process.
does this turn everything back to OEM spec ? including IPL etc ?

It does indeed. The IPL/SPL is returned to 1.08. I know there's probably a lot of folks who didn't want to try the new AKU ROM for fear of not being able to return to a 100% stock version....you can now do that easily.
Dude your awesome! I always put the newest rom on my device anyway, but its nice to know (in case device breaks) I can bring it back with no worries.
Absolutely awesome summiter! Just like the wayback machine that Mr. Peabody and Sherman would use in the old cartoon! Worked like a charm. (Forgot how slow that original ROM is...) Looking forward to installing your Cingular 2.17.
Thanks again dude, you're definitely gonna make a lot of people happy.

This is even better than what I was looking for originally. I wanted everything to be exactly like the 8125 on my Qtek 9100 because I'm on Cingular (I just like how the 9100 looks compared to the 8125). Now this came along as something even better - the newest Qtek 9100 ROM with the best combination of Cingular settings! I can't thank you enough!
EDIT: Hmm, everything works beautifully except one main thing: when I tried adding my GMail account to Outlook, I got to the point where it asks if it's a POP3 or IMAP4 account. I select POP3 and name it GMail, but when I click Next at the bottom, nothing happens. It's as if the button does absolutely nothing. Because of this, I can't add my email account because I can't proceed to the final step. Is anybody else having this problem?
I found it on Hofo posted by JediCorrado.
yanathin try this and let us know if it works.
Incoming Mail: pop.gmail.com:995
Outgoing Mail: smtp.gmail.com:465
under Options check "Require SSL Connection" "Outgoing mail requires authentication" "Use separate settings"
Click Outgoing Settings
Enter your username, password, check "Require SSL for outgoing mail"
The problem is that I can't even GET to the point where I enter my incoming/outgoing server... The "Next" button leading to that screen won't do anything. I had GMail working before the new ROM update just fine. (sorry for the slightly off-topic posts)
Sorry yanathin, was just trying to help.
I keep looking and post if I find anything.
biggie ups to you, summiter
so i'm a pansy, and i dinna have the brass ones required to futz with my stock cingular 8125... until this came along. just finished popping on the official qtek rom, and things appear to be running swimmingly. will mess around more later because i want a2dp so i can stop carrying my logitech dongle around, but thas neither here nor there.
excellent, EXCELLENT post. thanks much, chief.
EDIT: i got mine all set up, and i have to reflash, but i don't even care, because you're awesome in the first place for getting this up, and awesome again for fixing it on-the-spot-like. biggie ups again. downloading again now =)
awesome, im gonna give this a shot soon

I think I know what the problem is - gimme a few minutes to check things out and I'll upload a fixed installer.
Thanks soo much for the new rom package
I just finished loading my apps back on the cingular 8125, and it all works great, and much faster than the stock cingular rom. Exellent Work!

That would be wonderful if you could fix it... Aside from the ugly pasted Cingular logo on the Phone screen and Incoming Call pop-up box (I love it when Cingular just "pastes" their logo on things, no matter how it looks :x), this ROM is darn near perfect!

Is this a definate confirmed bug with the current installer? If it is I figure I should wait because I use my mail on the road everyday. If anyone has more info - please let us know. Thanks for creating this ROM and for looking at it again---as someone who has been afraid of updating but really anxious, this is really exciting.

It was one of the Cingular cab files. Apparently there was some issue with MMS and Cingular had a cab file that applied some sort of hotfix. Well this hotfix isn't needed with the AKU2 ROM and all it did was break mail. I've removed that portion of the offending cab file, repacked, and I'll upload the fixed installer afer I finish one more round of double checking. I've deleted the old one off the ftp, so when you see the 2.17 installer back up it will be the fixed version.

The fixed installer has been uploaded. Use the original link in the first message of this thread to grab it.
My appologies to those folks who got their devices all set up and have to reflash.. :?
that worked out great! my 8125 was acting all retarded and not picking up any signal at all for about 8 hours and after i installed the upgrade package, it worked like a charm. anybody else have any problems with the 8125 dropping connectivity completely?

Were you using the original stock ROM when you had these issues?
I have 4 Wizards, and 3 of them had problems locking up and losing signal with the original Cingular ROM. Cingular blames the problem on bad SIMs. After flashing to AKU 2 I've had no problems with any of the devices, so the update is either handling flaky SIMs better or Cingular was taking the easy way out of the problem. haha
So i was just poking around the FTP site looking for some things for my phone and i came accross this file here (cingular-ExtROM.zip). now im not very smart but if i understand this correctly, this is the customization that runs after you do a hard reset on your phone with shipped OS/ROM. If this is the case how can i piece this apart to find out which ones i need to just have the GPRS/MMS settings install via cab. That would make life alot easier lets say if i want to use WM6 or a non Cingular ROM.

The Cingular GPRS/MMS cab files are posted in more than one place on the forum already. You can save yourself some work by searching for them vs. trying to pull them out of the ExtROM file. The search function sucks but it will find those if you play around with it.
See thats my problem, I love you all and you are all a great deal of help. Thanks in advance since this may hurt someones feelings. Searching this forum, as awesome as it is, is more of a pain. Ive read most of the main posts trying to find the answer to my question, but it appears that some posts spiral off in other directions rather than that of which it was originally posted. People here are very nice and help alot, but it makes me confused when i cant find it and everyone says search the forums. LOL. I guess this is just me venting frustration at WM6 not having my settings already there LOL.

Search for the following two specifically:
P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard.cab for GPRS
cingular_mms_964.cab for MMS
Both of these are included in posts and should be easy to find - unless (as I have seen folks write - really!!) you believe that "search" means "read".
If you flash WM6, you may also need ARCSoft too.
Custom-mms1-install-for-mms_733.cab - This CAB installs the MMS folder in Messaging
Cingular_mms_946.cab - This CAb installs MMS settings
P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard.cab - This CAB installs your GPRS settings
Here's the catch: If you are trying to use these settings on WM6, you'll have to download the Arcsoft MMS cab to get it working. Sorry, but I dont have that one handy.

You guys rock!!!! As for the Arcsoft MMS, I already have after hours of research when i first installed WM6. Again you guys rock.
I got this version (as well as many other people) when i upgraded to wm6 and frankly it completely sucks. There's no softkey support and its a pain in the neck to add a recipient when composing....
I've searched for a long time but i cannot find any past verions, if anyone has the version from the tmobile 2.26 rom or any other verion that is flud i would very appreciative....
thanks in advance
i have it but it simply doesnt work on wm6. itll install fine it just wont show up.
